I took Brintellix for two weeks for depression.
It helped me allot with the depression, calmed me down, and gave me lots of motivation for the whole day.
The main side effect was that I could not get to sleep at night, and I was constantly used sleeping pills in order to get to sleep.
Do someone experienced the same? If yes, did it stopped while the time?
Thank You for your answers

Hi, alon!
"Psychiatric
Common (1% to 10% of users): Abnormal dreams, insomnia"
"Side effects have been reported to be generally mild and transient. They are most common during the first 2 weeks of treatment and decrease in intensity and frequency with continued treatment. They generally do not lead to treatment cessation."
Best regards and I hope this helps!
